Dive Into Summer at Kalahari Resort
Nothing screams summer like a waterpark, and there aren’t many waterparks as all-inclusive as Kalahari Resort. As the name suggests, this isn’t just a park where you can find tunneled water slides, lazy rivers, and basketball pools—though you most certainly can, and in abundance. You can also spend the night in one of its luxurious suites, enjoy world-class dining at one of its restaurants, and even relax at a 21+ swim-up bar like Kalahari’s unique indoor grotto.

Slide Into Home at Dell Diamond
Not too many cities can claim to have their own Minor League Baseball team. Since Minor League teams are based in smaller cities, there’s a tighter sense of community around the team. You can experience that for yourself by watching the Round Rock Express, Triple-A affiliate to the Texas Rangers, at their very own stadium, Dell Diamond. But baseball isn’t the only reason to visit. In the aptly titled Fun Zone, kids can enjoy inflatables, a 26-foot rock wall, a train-themed playground, and more!

Take a Stroll in Downtown Round Rock
If you’re looking for Round Rock’s downtown area, just look to the sky for the iconic water tower. In this cultural center, you’ll find quaint shops and crafted local dining. At Prete Plaza, the kids can beat the heat by hitting the splash pad, then the whole family can take in a free concert on Wednesday nights. Come July, Round Rock’s patriotic spirit will be on full display with its annual 4th of July parade.

Old Settlers Park: Fishing, Disc Golf, and So Much More
Though Round Rock has many parks, Old Settlers Park stands alone with its 645 acres of d\isc golf, cricket, softball, tennis, football fields, and much more. For the fishing fans, the park is home to Bright Lake, which carries bass, catfish, and perch. It’s no wonder Round Rock is known as the Sports Capital of Texas. But wait, there’s more! Remote-controlled airplane enthusiasts will be pleased to know the park has its very own take-off and landing strip.

Donuts the Size of Your Head at Round Rock Donuts
Songbirds are nice and all, but if you really want something to lure you out of bed in the morning, look no further than Round Rock Donuts. This purveyor of pastries has been serving the Round Rock area since 1926 and isn’t slowing down. If you’re feeling adventurous, we recommend trying their Texas Sized Donut, which comes in glazed, chocolate, or half-glazed and half-chocolate. As the name suggests, you’re going to need a coffee cauldron if you want to do any dipping with this behemoth.

Swing Big at Forest Creek Golf Club
If you need an excuse to get outside in the beautiful Texas weather, the golf courses in Round Rock are more than happy to oblige. One of our favorites is the Forest Creek Golf Club, a state-of-the-art par-72 course with an extensive practice facility and Player Grill. For the kids, the club even hosts the PGA Junior League, which includes weeks of practice sessions followed by a series of matches.

Get Yourself Something Nice at Round Rock Premium Outlets
There’s no better palate cleanser on a busy day of summer shenanigans than some good ol’ fashioned shopping. And any local will tell you there’s no better place to get in some serious shopping than the Round Rock Premium Outlets. It’s here you’ll find 125 name-brand outlets brought together by a series of magnificent courtyards. Mark your calendars for National Outlet Shopping Day in June. The outlets will be celebrating with discounts, giveaways, and activities for the kids!

Get the Scoop on the Buzzworthy Round Rock Honey
In recent years, consumers have become more interested in where their food comes from, and rightfully so. Buying local is not only a great way to make sure your food is minimally processed, but also to support the community. That brings us to Round Rock Honey, a local business whose product comes straight from the hive to your table. To deepen the relationships between business and consumer even further, they offer tours of their honey house and even beekeeping classes!

Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World: The Great Outdoors Meets the Great Indoors
What’s a summer vacation without a trip to Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World? Before you tackle any camping trips, water sports, or outdoor activities of any kind, you’re going to need to stock up on clothing and supplies. The 120,000-square-foot store in Round Rock carries a mind-boggling amount of merchandise, as well as a museum, aquarium, and art gallery. While you’re there, grab lunch and bowl beneath the sea at Uncle Buck’s Fishbowl & Grill, a unique, nautical-themed bowling alley located inside the store!

Meet the Original “Round Rock”
Believe it or not, Round Rock isn’t just a pretty name. Way back in 1851, the first rumblings of a city began to emerge on the banks of Brushy Creek. In the middle of the creek, there was a round rock that marked a low point in the water perfect for crossing. This round rock was so pivotal to Native Americans and settlers that it was forever immortalized as the name of the town. These days, you can visit the original Round Rock and its nearby historical marker to pay homage to the city’s unique history.

A Summer Vacation Spot for the Whole Family
As you can probably tell, Round Rock is a bustling small town filled with summer fun. Whether you’re looking to spend a whole week or want a more bite-sized experience, Round Rock has you covered with a top-of-the-line golf club, all-inclusive water park, a modern baseball stadium, Texas Sized Donuts and much more. If you’re looking for a place to rest your head in between the fun, book a room at a local boutique like The Ruby or one of our cozy hotels!
